The procedure to be followed in the event of the death of a candidate in a Mayor of London election depends on whether the candidate who dies is an independent or a registered party candidate.
Should a fellow candidate die during the campaign, the Greater London Returning Officer will provide you with further guidance.
If an independent candidate dies, then the poll still proceeds – unless there are only two persons who are standing as candidates and the death would make the election uncontested. In that case, the poll will be cancelled.
